Candidate Randy Kamp won his fourth term as MP Monday, winning the Pitt Meadows-Maple Ridge-Mission riding by almost 10,000 votes as Conservative blue swept the country. Kamp gave his victory speech an hour and 45 minutes after polls closed at 7 p.m. “I felt there was a growing appetite for a majority,” said Kamp as the crowd cheered the Conservative sweep of 166 seats. “It’s a better result than I thought

it would be. It shows that people were really tired of elections and wanted stability.” At the final tally, Kamp had garnered 28,848 votes, over NDP candidate Craig Speirs’ 18,865. Liberal Mandeep Bhuller came a distant third, taking 2,738 votes, while Green Peter Tam wasn’t far

behind with 2,642. Kamp said the Conservative majority will allow his government to pass key legislation like abolishing the gun registry and other crime bills. “I thought the results would be a little closer,” he added. “I’m pleased.” Kamp pushed his lead from the 2008 election over his nearest rival by more than 2,000 votes. Speirs, a Maple Ridge councillor, and Mike Bocking, who ran against Kamp in 2008, congratulated Kamp on his victory in person. “Kamp ran a good campaign. He has a block of support in Pitt

Meadows-Maple Ridge-Mission and that’s shone through. You can’t argue with the voter,” said Speirs. The mood at the headquarters for NDP candidate was quiet, after he conceded defeat. The local riding just isn’t quite ready to shed its Conservative skin, said Speirs. “We’ve got something to build on,” he said to the crowd of approximately 30 supporters gathered at the Maple Ridge NDP headquarters. “We came a lot closer this time.”

The District of Mission is facing a class action lawsuit launched by local residents who believe their rights were violated when their properties were inspected by the Public Safety Inspection Team (PSIT). The announcement was made by the B.C. Civil Liberties Association (BCCLA), who is supporting residents, Wednesday morning in Vancouver after The Record’s deadline. Micheal Vonn, policy director for BCCLA, hopes the legal action will provide compensation for those hurt by the program, and help protect people’s rights in all municipalities with similar bylaws. It’s an important area of the law to shape because the programs are new, said Vonn, adding outsourcing police work to safety inspectors continues to be controversial. BCCLA has had concerns about municipalities using BC Hydro data to determine unusually high power consumption to target homes for inspection since the legislation was introduced by the provincial government in 2006. People who have had their homes searched for a marijuana grow operation reported being intimidated and abused by the PSIT members, and their reputations in their neighbourhoods have been tainted, said Vonn. “People have lost their house, lost their job, and can’t get across the border.” Vonn noted the findings aren’t just registered on land titles, police are

Abbotsford couple hurt in Mission motorcycle crash A 50-year-old Chilliwack man is facing charges after a collision with a motorcycle last Saturday in Mission left an Abbotsford couple in serious condition. The couple have now been transferred out of intensive care, but remain at the Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster. Police said the preliminary investigation indicated the Chilliwack man was travelling north on Johnson Road, ran a stop sign while making a left turn and struck the motorcycle heading east on Lougheed Highway. “The driver of the motorcycle was pinned under the Cavalier and freed by nearby homeowners utilizing a large

jack,” RCMP Const. Dave Lagerwerf said in a news release. The Abbotsford couple, a 50-yearold man and his 48-year-old wife, were airlifted to hospital by air ambulance. Police said there is no indication alcohol was a factor in the accident. However, the Cavalier did not have insurance at the time of the collision. It was towed from the scene and is now being tested for its mechanical condition. Anyone who witnessed the collision and has not already spoken with police is asked to call Const.

NDP has a good base From KAMP Page 1

Speirs, a four-term Maple Ridge councillor, singled out former NDP candidate Bocking for his help during the four-week campaign, which saw a near implosion of the Liberal party across the nation. In several of the individual local riding polling stations, Liberal candidate Mandeep Bhuller was earning fewer than 10 votes. “I feel your pain,” Speirs said to the dejected volunteers. “I think we did a really good job. We now have a good base.” The retired Liquor Distribution Branch employee also said his loss wasn’t the worst thing that could have happened, given the party federally has formed the official opposition for the first time. “We’ll be holding [the Conservatives’] feet to the fire,” he noted. Regarding the massive Liberal losses, Bocking attributed this to a “perception that the party doesn’t particularly stand for anything anymore. The NDP or the Conservatives stand for something identifiable.” Voter turnout for the election was slight higher than 2008 with 53,093 of 88,555 registered electors in the riding (60 per cent) casting a ballot, compared to 51, 308 during the last election.

Libs will rebuild RFEIs issued for health centre Bhuller earned 2,738 votes Monday BY MONISHA MARTINS Black Press

The dismal defeat of the Liberal Party of Canada has not discouraged local Grits who vow to rebuild the brand in Pitt Meadows-Maple Ridge-Mission before the next election. Mandeep Bhuller got 2,738 votes on Monday, 656 less than the Liberal candidate in 2008, while the party dropped nationally from 77 seats to 34 and lost official Opposition party status to the NDP. Bhuller believes the riding results are a reflection of hardfought campaigns on four fronts. “We definitely didn’t go down in the same way the national team did,” said Bhuller, a Maple Ridge resident, who was picked as the Liberal candidate three days before the writ dropped five weeks ago. Bhuller is thrilled by the support he managed to muster in a short time. For the first time in years, Liberals opened a campaign office in Maple Ridge, put up signs throughout the riding, engaged in social media, door-knocked and debated other candidates publicly. Three out of the past four campaigns were run by “parachute” candidates, Bhuller added. “I think any person can appreciate the value of living in and knowing your community before you stand up for it.” Bhuller now intends to build on the strong team of volunteers who helped his campaign. “We’ve got the commitment,” he said. “We need to keep this brand in the community. It is an alternative. We’ve got four years now, which was not the case before. For the past five years, elections have been called at the whim of national forces.” Although the Greens dropped back to fourth place Monday, after beating the Liberals by 400 votes in 2008, Peter Tam was buoyed by his party’s showing nationally. Green leader Elizabeth May became the party’s first elected federal member of parliament Monday when she won the Saanich-Gulf Islands riding. “It’s a major change in landscape in politics,” said Tam. “A lot of people were surprised the NDP didn’t do well here. It looks like Maple Ridge wants to keep their tradition and is not ready for the change yet.” Just like the Liberals, Tam too will continue to build the Green party brand over the next four years. “I think we need to do a little bit more educating,” said Tam, who will be seeking a seat on Maple Ridge council. “We need to build this community a little bit better.”

Construction could start this year BY CAROL AUN Mission Record

Mission could be home to a new health care centre by 2014. Fraser Health Authority (FHA) issued a request for expression of interest (RFEI) last week to build the two-part project, located next to Mission Memorial Hospital (MMH) on FHA-owned land. An applicant will be chosen to design and build a 200-bed complex residential care facility for seniors, but ownership and operation stays with the health authority. The centre will be available for people with 24 hour, seven days a week needs, and there will be a day program. According to FHA, this will add 25 per cent more residential care beds in

the community. The capital cost for the 128,000 sq. ft. site will be financed by Fraser Valley Regional Hospital District (FVRHD), with support from FHA. Fraser Health is also looking for a company to design, construct and operate a 27,000 sq. ft. community health centre, which Fraser Health will lease. Some of the programs slated for the site include a diabetes and seniors’ clinic, public, home and mental health, and addictions care. The chosen applicant can also build up to 23,000 sq. ft. of additional space to rent to others, such as doctors and retailers. While the private sector is being called upon to design and build the community health centre, Fraser Health will be delivering most of the services, said Mission Mayor James Atebe, who sits on the FVRHD board and has been working on the project

for nearly four years. These two buildings will strengthen and expand current health care services and address seniors’ needs — the top two health-related priorities identified in 2009, added Atebe, noting the centre is an FHA first. This facility will give residents a one-stop shop for health care and help attract professionals to Mission, something with which this community has struggled, Atebe explained. “For me, this is an historical achievement.” “Integrating clinical services can dramatically improve client service and health outcomes,” said Dr. Nigel Murray, Fraser Health president and CEO. “Not only will clients be able to access a range of services close together, but our care team still be better able to coordinate the care provided to the client.” The RFEI closes May 24. Construction could begin later this year.

also recording it in their databases. Vonn has studied some of the evidence against homeowners and believes based on findings such as potting soil in the house and mould, almost every home in the region would violate the district’s controlled substance property bylaw. BCCLA, which was an intervenor in a similar Surrey case, became involved with the local action after Vonn spoke on the radio about programs like PSIT. Vonn called the $5,200 inspection fee ludicrous and was inundated with phone calls from Mission residents shortly afterwards. It’s not plausible to charge a hom-

eowner that much on a cost recovery basis, Vonn insisted. But what really caught BCCLA’s attention was the lack of a process review. When residents challenged the findings, the district simply asked the inspectors to confirm the result, she charged. “This isn’t a review process. It’s an administrative process ... and you’re still required to apply rules of fairness.” People have a right to know the case against them and have it reviewed properly. “[The district] says it’s doing it for safety purposes, but you don’t do it by taking away [other people’s] rights.” Vonn has been forwarding dozens of calls to lawyer Alexander MarkhamZantvoort, who is leading the class

action lawsuit, but couldn’t provide an exact number as to how many people have joined. Markham-Zantvoort could not be reached for comment by press time. District of Mission halted all PSIT-led inspections in January of this year, and is currently reviewing the controversial bylaw. The district doesn’t offer comments on matters before the courts, said Mayor James Atebe. However, he noted Mission’s bylaws serve the community and they are challenged from time to time. It’s within people’s democratic right to do so, and when that happens, the district will have to “follow the laws of the country to defend the interests of the community as best we can,” said Atebe.

Walsh bids adieu to Mission, RCMP BY CAROL AUN Mission Record

Instead of chasing bad guys this week, Mission RCMP Insp. Pat Walsh is pursuing ocean waves and high mountain tops as he eases into his first week of retirement. After spending 33 years with the national police force, Walsh tied up loose ends and packed up his office last week, preparing for the next chapter of his life. Walsh likes to work with a plan. He had goals in his career, strategies to fight crime, and even objectives in his personal life. As his 55th birthday approached, Walsh knew it was time to move on. Two years ago he and his wife thought about their retirement plans and bought a house in Powell River. The house is a fixer upper, Walsh admits, and it will keep the couple busy for a while, but the view is fantastic and any time he gets disheartened, all he has

to do is step out onto the balcony, take a deep breath and look out at the ocean. At his retirement lunch celebration April 20, Walsh welcomed visitors to his new home, but warned them to bring a hammer. The retiring inspector was showered with gifts and good wishes from friends and colleagues as he reminisced about his career. Walsh grew up in Saint John, NB and spent his rookie year in Vernon. He later worked in a number of communities, including Stewart, Maple Ridge and E-Division headquarters before applying for the job in Mission almost seven years ago. When people are asked what highlights come to mind, they usually focus on the first and last positions, but Walsh says he’s never had a posting he didn’t enjoy. “Mission has been my longest posting,” he said. “I wanted to come to Mission; I didn’t want to police anywhere else.”

During his time at the helm here, crime rates in all major categories dropped every year and Walsh implemented a crime reduction strategy focusing on repeat offenders, reoccurring

issues, youth and zone constables. The method has proven successful, but Walsh also credits the community partners with whom he works. “I’ve taken the detach-

ment to the level it’s at now, but we need fresh ideas to come in to take it further,” he said. Walsh said he knew it was time to retire “when another life calls out to you that’s stronger than

your professional life.” Time is a commodity and you need to spend it wisely, said Walsh. “You can’t get any more of it.” Walsh plans to stay active doing what he loves

most: sailing, kayaking, fishing, and hiking. And once he’s settled into his new community, he and his wife will surely get involved with it as well. Some things never change.

Black Press, BC Games ink sponsorship deal BY TRAVIS PATERSON Black Press

Kelly Mann hardly raised an eyebrow to the Canucks’ spectacular win of Round 1 in the playoffs this week. To be fair, no one is more passionate about sports than Mann. As far as he’s concerned, youth athletics and the surrounding community are where it’s at. The president and CEO of B.C. Games has guided the province’s Summer and Winter Games to great heights through a passion for sports. Mann was in Vernon last week to help the host city launch the official countdown for the 2012 B.C. Winter Games, set for Feb. 23-26. In tandem with the launch, Mann announced a four-year partnership between the Games and Black Press, parent company of The Mission Record. “While we sponsor literally thousands of events each year, The Games, both winter and summer, are on a scale that is one of the largest opportunities to engage our readers across B.C.,” said Candy Hodson, senior vice-

President and CEO of BC Games Kelly Mann. SHARON TIFFIN PHOTO

president of national sales and marketing for Black Press. “In covering the B.C. Games it allows Black Press to also showcase our best: we bring together ‘local’ on a provincial scale,” she said. Mann agreed the shared focus on athletic promotion in the community between the B.C. Games and Black Press is a perfect fit. “Black Press papers and the Winter and Summer Games are in virtually every community in B.C. “Black Press will provide extensive coverage and advertising to support the B.C. Games and

share the story of how the Games impact athletes, coaches, officials, volunteers and communities.” The partnership will coincide with three games: the 2012 Summer Games in Surrey and the 2014 Winter and Summer Games in Mission and Nanaimo, respectively. He’s been with B.C. Games since 1992 but also co-founded the Kidsport Greater Victoria chapter in 2002, one of the most successful in the country. When president Randy Blair of Black Press’ Lower Mainland division proposed the newspaper chain become one of three corporate sponsors, Mann knew the opportunity at hand. “We want people to understand the competitive support system in athletic development in B.C.,” Mann said. “You don’t hear of Ryder Hesjedal as a B.C. Games athlete, you hear of him as a Tour de France competitor. We talk about athletes like they fell out of a tree but really they’ve had a support network since they were eight. This [partnership] will add greater depth to the role of athletes and the support network of the development stage.”

OPINION

Published and printed by Black Press Ltd. at Mission at 33047 First Ave., V2V 1G2

Kids need web It’s nothing less than shocking how B.C. schools have had to scrimp for computer labs, teacher training and internet upgrades so students can get fast, efficient access to the web for research and school projects. For more than a decade, schools have tried to build programs considered key to 21st century learning with little to no direct capital funding for technology. While the province is touting “personalized learning” and the transformation of education through technology, it has put up very little cash to support its latest enthusiasms. The result is a patchwork of services across the province and extremely slow connections to the internet in classrooms. While parents are seen as gatekeepers of the internet for their kids, more and more responsibility for educating students about safe web usage and internet research is falling to teachers, yet they don’t as yet have the tools to do this job properly. Some of the consequences of an overloaded system have included problems with online exams and shutdowns of the data management system BCeSIS as well as frustration amongst staff and students who can’t get on the web to do their work. The problem with outdated technology is well understood by parents who struggle to keep up with their children’s internet usage. It takes cash as well as technological know-how to stay ahead of the kids and schools shouldn’t be left in the dark ages by the provincial government. - Tri-City News

Twitter for normal people T

hese days the media never shut up about Facebook and Twitter and “viral videos.” In this year’s political madhouse, no candidate can be caught without a social media presence. So it surprises me that the breakout technology for public engagement turns out to be huge conference calls on the old landline telephone. “Tele-town halls” were first deployed here by BC Liberal leadership candidate George Abbott. He got such big participation that Kevin Falcon’s deep-pocketed campaign quickly followed suit. Premier Christy Clark did one yesterday evening for her Vancouver byelection run. Falcon, the reluctant finance minister, is using the same method to ask for options on the harmonized sales tax. In between hockey games over the next week, folks having dinner will be getting calls with a recorded message inviting them to tell him what he should do with the HST. Falcon admitted to some

trepidation before extending such an offer to the general public. What he got at his first one in Surrey was 27,000 people who stayed on the line for an average of 16 minutes, hundreds who queued up to ask questions, and 90 minutes of surprisingly civil discussion with real people. I listened in to the first one hosted by Transportation Minister Blair Lekstrom, where 5,900 residents of the Peace River region stuck around for an average 21 minutes To to hear why he quit the BC Liberals over the HST, and then went back. That region and East Kootenay will be the toughest sell for the B.C. government’s mail-in referendum in June. There were annoyed people. One man called it the “ripoff tax” that applies to groceries. Lekstrom politely noted that basic groceries are exempt from GST and HST. A farmer said it’s on top of

the carbon tax, which falls harder on people who put up with cold weather and long driving distances. Another said cross-border shopping to Alberta has become even more popular. It was refreshing to hear real people describe their situations and concerns. Most had apparently spent little time poring over media accounts of the HST, but unlike the stale and spin-heavy debate that resumed in the B.C. legislature last week, they were m direct, polite and willing to listen. Falcon reported a similar experience after 90 minutes of questions in Surrey. Suggestions included dropping the HST by a point (estimated cost $850 million) and offering more exemptions, on things like gym memberships or bike helmets. I live-blogged the event on Twitter, including a brief debate with former NDP MLA

B.C. Views

Fletcher

David Schreck about the fairness of these town halls. Schreck said there should be equal time for a critic of the HST, otherwise it’s just government propaganda. Judging by the NDP’s latest line of questioning, town hall participants aren’t missing much. Their big point in the legislature was that if the HST is rejected, low-income people would still get the GST credit. Yes, and the sun will continue to rise, but poor people will still lose a significant redistribution of income. You’ll hear a lot about the HST in the next few weeks, with government and business advertising the merits of keeping it, and Bill Vander Zalm’s FightHST organization spending $250,000 of public money to continue its campaign of fear and ignorance. You could do worse than participating in one of these telephone town halls. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com Twitter.com/tomfletcherbc

YOUR VIEWS

Mission must live Cut number of govâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t staff within its means to save taxpayers money

Editor, The Record: Mission residents rejected the $300-million Stave Lake P3 water treatment facility for good reason. The proposal is of no benefit for current residents and will saddle us with debt for decades to come. The proposed new water line doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do anything to upgrade Missionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s existing aging infrastructure despite evidence there are leaks in the system which will need to be fixed. Instead the costly water line takes a sharp

turn west to Silverdale. The proposal intends to give an unknown corporation control of the operations of our water for 25 years or even longer. The costs of water to residents would be tied to the cost of hydro. This, at a time when hydro rates are skyrocketing means higher water costs for residents. Simply put, the Stave Lake P3 proposal is a public bailout intended to save developers in Silverdale and Abbotsford hundreds of millions in infrastructure costs and

we havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even been told what the sewer costs will be. CAUSS believes that Mission should learn to live within its means rather than forcing growth at any cost. We simply cannot afford the massive infrastructure costs associated with sprawl-water. A truly sustainable community must live within basic economic and environmental limits, and must ensure that the public interest is not overridden by corporate agendas. Tracy Lyster CAUSS

Leave water in public hands Editor, The Record: Open letter to Mayor James Atebe: First, I would like to congratulate you and your council colleagues who had the good sense to listen to the people of Mission at last Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meeting and to reject the proposed P3 water agreement. Second, I would like to state that along with the many who spoke at that council meeting opposing this project, I am very strongly opposed to it. Public water systems in Canada should remain public. There is no way on earth that we should allow any degree of

privatization of such a critical resource. Even to consider it is an absurdity. Let me be clear. I am opposed to any and all public/private partnerships affecting our drinking water supply, not just this particular application. It is my firm belief that it would be impossible to build in adequate safeguards for such things as availability, reasonable cost, quality of water and maintenance of water systems over the long term. It is also my belief that water being the single most important commodity to life, next to air, that it cannot be entrusted to

any private organization and must be the property of each and every person in our society, regardless of age, income or other demographic group. That district council saw fit to countenance such an application at all makes me wonder just what sort of persons we have on council. To consider such an application is, in my view, scandalous. Christopher D. Ryan Mission

Editor, The Record: Re: Ruskin decommissioned?, April 14 edition. I was shocked to read Energy Minister Rich Colemanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s statements of rearranging public water sources used in energy creation to eventually obtain more taxes through a smart grid. This is totally out of step with the population, who value their publicly owned water supplies used currently for energy production, and would rather have them protected for the future. No doubt the Ruskin Dam needs various upgrades, including earthquake proofing, and I had the idea it was being done. However, as with many public facilities, it seems government lets upgrading and required repairs be ignored until the situation is crucial, and then there is wringing of hands and whining about the cost to fix years

As we all know, sunglasses protect peoplesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; eyes from ultraviolet rays. Different coloured sunglass lenses accomplish different purposes. Polarized lenses are wonderful on a bright sunny day, but on a dull, overcast day, yellow lenses are the best choice. Skiers, cyclists, and golfers have been known to beneďŹ t from yellow lenses because they enhance contrast and brightness in low light. If you ďŹ nd driving at night in the rain difďŹ cult, yellow lenses with an anti-glare coating on the back surface will be a great choice, as the coloured lens will enhance the contrast, and reduce the glare of car lights.

At least we could take comfort if we knew our public assets were being handled by government and protected from private intrusion. On the other hand, if government is sliding more toward letting private corporations do the planning, building and operation of public facilities, then a significant cost could be saved for citizens by merely reducing the vast numbers of officials, staff and ministers across the country, who will no longer be required to do those tasks. Our government has a responsibility to protect public assets and to be directly involved in the planning, creation and upgrading of vital facilities for the benefit of all who live and work in this land now and in future.

of inattention. Even letting the resource lapse entirely was mentioned with regard to the Ruskin area, as well as lowering the level of Hayward Lake. It would be more productive for government to look at new, proven ideas which will create energy safely and not destroy the irreplaceable natural environments and water areas we still have. There is much lowcost energy available if it would be harnessed. Is government not aware, or not motivated to move in that direction? It is also disconcerting that our large government structure, with its many ministers, staff, locations, etc., is very expensive.

The developers behind a proposed project at Lougheed Highway and Wren Street are offering to donate about 27 acres of land to the Fraser Valley Conservancy (FVC), if their building plan goes ahead. The move is part of a compensation and mitigation package, currently being negotiated with Fisheries and Oceans Canada (FOC), as the development is expected to destroy some fish habitat. Lisa Fox, FVC executive director, presented a concept to create a conservancy centre of excellence for the community at a council meeting last

a staff report outlining all the options and what impact such a site would have on the Silverdale Wetlands, and the district’s network of parks and trails. It’s an interesting proposal and I look forward to the staff report, said Coun. Jenny Stevens. The FVC is a nonprofit organization established in 1998 to protect land and water for future generations.

She explained the land, located close to the Silverdale Wetlands, could complement it, providing parking spaces and buildings that can be used as offices, classrooms or an interpretive centre. It could also provide employment and revenue opportunities, said Fox. This plan would be the first of its kind in the Fraser Valley and Metro Vancouver areas, added Fox, who explained working with a land trust will ensure the project will last and there will be little cost to the taxpayer to set up and maintain the site.

Local pastor fondly remembered A popular Mission pastor who passed away in late March never lost his sense of humour, or his gentle charm. Cecil Savage had lived in Mission for decades and was well-respected in the community, starting pastoring here in 1978 at the Mission Baptist Church. He was more widely known for his work as padre for the Mission branch of the Royal Canadian Legion, of which he was a lifetime member, participating in the annual Remembrance Day ceremonies, Canada Day, funerals and more. Savage was born Oct. 14, 1925 near Toronto, Ont., said his son, Darryl. Savage joined the Navy during the Second World War and trained as an

anti-aircraft gunner. He spent most of his service off the Atlantic coast on a number of ships, including the HMCS Uganda, searching for submarines. After leaving the navy, he came to British Columbia where he met his wife of 49 years, Joan,

and the couple raised five children. Joan died Oct. 9, 2008 after a short battle with cancer. Savage earned his bachelor of theology from the Northwest Baptist Theological College in the mid-1960s while pastoring at Renfrew Baptist in Vancouver. Years later, said Darryl, he earned an honourary doctorate from Northgate Graduate School. Five years after coming to Mission, Savage took on the pastorate of the newly formed Sovereign Grace Baptist Church. During this time, he fought and won a battle with cancer, and suffered several strokes. He continued his duties until 1996 when another stroke forced him to retire, and

Darryl became the church pastor. Savage was well known for making himself available day or night for anyone, and for opening his home to someone in need. This giving spirit led Savage to spend years counselling drug and alcohol addicts at Miracle Valley Treatment Centre, and in 1994, he opened the Christian Learning Centre to guide more people struggling with addictions, and to train others how to counsel and teach the Bible. In February 2004, Savage was presented with the Lifetime Achievement Award for his service to Mission and the country. Savage passed away March 22.

falls on the ground because you just don’t have the time or ability to pick it? Do you have excess garden produce you would like to share? If so, the MFAN Gleaners are here to help. Every year landowners in Mission find their gardens and fruit trees produce far more than they can use. In many cases, this bounty spoils or falls to the ground. MFAN volunteer Gleaners are available to pick or harvest this excess produce from your property at no charge. The food that is gleaned is split three ways between the landowner, the volunteer harvesters and local community organizations.

think outside the bottle

Some of the community organizations that will benefit from the bounty are: Street Hope, Union Gospel Mission, Mission Food Centre, Mission’s Kitchens and St. Joseph’s Food Bank. “Many of our guests can’t afford to purchase fresh produce, so to have it available at our centre to give out is so beneficial,” says Karen Flanagan of Union Gospel Mission. Phil Hope from Mission Food Centre is also keen to see the program up and running. “Our clients are always asking for more fresh produce at the centre, so we welcome the contribution from MFAN’s food gleaning project.” MFAN is on

Mission resident Elizabeth Elliott is launching her new book, Security with Care, Restorative Justice and Healthy Societies, this weekend at the Mission Arts Centre. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the first book of its kind outlining the basics of restorative justice and offering different ways to respond to social and criminal problems than what we are used to. The system currently used was developed in the 19th century and all social institutions need to be revisited, given the enormous changes that have happened, said Elliott. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Canada is one of the major world contributors to the reemergence of these old ways of responding to harm in a community or society, and I felt that our story also needed to be told,â&#x20AC;? explained Elliott. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That said, the influence in the book comes more from west coast ap-

proaches to restorative justice, influenced strongly by the critical contributions of aboriginal traditions and beliefs, and the recent influences of Mennonite practices of conflict resolution.â&#x20AC;? Elliott began noticing this movement when she was a criminal justice social worker in the 1980s, who felt Elizabeth Elliott the needs of those who committed harm and those who had been harmed were not being well met by the traditional system. The concept was in the forefront in Howard Zehrâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 1990 book Changing Lenses. Up until that time, mediation had been used as an alternative to incarceration and a way to bring victims into the process more

fully, said Elliott. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The idea in Zehrâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book gave us a paradigmatic framework for the bigger picture, and so restorative justice finally took off.â&#x20AC;? Elliott believes it is a better way for both parties in a conflict to heal and move on. She has also adopted the philosophy as a better way to raise children and build healthy communities. The local author is also an associate professor at Simon Fraser University and has introduced restorative justice to her criminology students. She co-founded the Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Centre for Restorative Justice in the late 1990s. Elliottâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book can be purchased at Murdochâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Book Shoppe on First Avenue and the Mission Arts Council on Saturday, May 7 where she will be signing books from 1 to 4 p.m. The Mission Arts Council is located at 33529 First Ave. There will be light refreshments and everyone is welcome.

Opening Nite Theatreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s final performance of the season opens this weekend. A Night of Theatre features John Gardner on the piano, followed by two one-act plays: The Noble Lord by Percival Wilde, directed by Susan Dearing, and The Love Course by A.R. Gurney, directed by Rose Bennett. The Noble Lord is set in a secluded spot in the Maine woods in the neighbourhood of a summer hotel close to a small lake. A young woman wants to attract the attention of the noble lord who is vacationing at the hotel. She devises a plan: She fakes a drowning by jumping into the lake just as the noble lord is approaching in hopes that he will save her. The result is a short, hilarious, comedic play. The Love Course is set in an American university where Profs. Burgess and Carroway combine their literary skills to teach

The Love Course. Prof. Carroway specializes in the romantics, and Professor Burgessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; interests lie in Shakespeare and literature based on broader aspects of life. The entire play takes place during a class at the university. It is the last class of the school year and Carroway is moving to a new position in another university. She wants to make this a class to remember and indeed she does as she involves students Sally and Mike in her eccentric behaviour much to the dismay of Burgess who has a more down to earth approach to teaching and life. Performances take place at Opening Nite Theatre, 33227 N. Railway Ave., at 8 p.m. May 6, 7, 13, 14, Matinees are at 2 p.m. on May 8 and 15.

Rotary hosts trivia night There’s nothing trivial about graduation, and Mission Sunrise Rotary Club is calling on all trivia buffs to help them increase the coffers for its student scholarship fund. Join Rotarians and friends at Cedarbrooke Chateau May 6 for a funfilled evening of trivia, food, prizes and fellowship, all starting at 6:30 p.m. Funds raised will go to scholarships for Mission graduates pursuing a post secondary education. Mission Rotary Clubs donate thousands of dollars annually to graduating students, but there are a large number of continuing students who are struggling to pay the costs of education. There are numerous scholarships for recent graduates, but funds for those continuing on into second and subsequent years of education have few scholarship options, says Mission Community Foundation chair, Shelley Clarkson. Creating a fund for those students is the next scholarship goal of the club. This is a chance to come out, have a fun evening and contribute to students pursuing education and careers. Collect a team, or come and join another team May 6 and test your knowledge of sports, books, literature and general surprise categories. Tickets are available at Murdoch’s Book Shoppe, from Mission Sunrise Rotary members or by calling 604-826-0661.

APPRECIATE YOUR MOTHER It seems that a person can more fully appreciate their mother once they become a parent. At this point, they gain firsthand experience of what their mother did for them while they were growing up. A saintly mother is truly a blessing to her family, and the moral and ethical standards that she reflects to her children will be carried with them throughout their lives. Nothing changes a person’s life more than having children, and becoming a mother can be the most challenging, yet rewarding responsibility a woman will ever have. Since children tend to stereotype things, they may believe that all mothers are the same; however, each mother is unique and special in her own loving way. The Bible tells us that we should never forget what our mothers have taught us. We should keep their words always locked in our hearts. Their teaching will lead us when we travel, protect us at night and advise us during the day. Their loving correction can teach us how to live.

My son, keep your father’s commandment, and forsake not your mother’s teaching. R.S.V. Proverbs 6:20

Katie has been with Canadian Tire Mission for a little over a year and is now working in our Promo Dept. Born and raised in Mission, Katie likes spending time outdoors camping, hiking and 4x4ing. All the great sales in our Åyers are set up every week by Katie and we think she does an awesome job. Katie is deÄnitely with the rest of the store in cheering on her “Vancouver Canucks” and on her down time is on the hunt for a puppy.
